I'm bored where I'm at and flying 4 or 5 legs a day with not a peep from any of the majors has caused me to look at airlines like Omni. I have 6000TT with 2500PIC Jet. Would this be competitive? What can I expect in terms of money and time off?. I've seen past posts, but I see a bunch from pilots that don't work at Omni anymore.(Must be a reason). How about from pilots still at Omni.
They take an "if it's not in the contract, don't expect it to happen" policy. Bottom line. It's quite frustrating.
I'm not sure what you're doing now, but I was flying 135 single pilot freight before I came to Omni and I'd never go back to that scary crap. The job is fun if you can roll with the punches... I just flew with a couple guys who absolutely love it (the job, not the company), and a couple that think it's the worst job ever. So read the posts about what it's like to be gone for 18 or more days with Omni and make up your own mind. One thing Omni is not is boring. There's something new every trip.
